A night after Bentley got away, Sly was wandering around the office at Interpol hoping that some time soon he could get on his way to finding the gang. As Sly sat down, Carmelita was called to the chiefs office. Time for some espionage.

Sly walked up to the door and cocked his ear up to it.
" Hey Cooper, what you doin'?" an officer queries.
" Oh nothing Burt." Sly said quickly. As Bert walked off, Sly thought he had to find a better place.
Using his old thieving skills Sly quickly discovered a vent.
Its been along time since I got to do this. Thought Sly as he squeezed through the gap.

"…. so that's why your going." finished the chief.
Drat! I missed what she's going to do.
" You want me to make sure those race are legit just because I was closest to the Cooper case"
Guess I'm in luck. " Yes and don't let Sly meet any one from the past especially that Murray," The chief replied, " he's becoming a valuable member of the team"

Sly scrambled out of the vent as fast as possible, to resume his position before Carmelita came along.
" Sly we're off"
" Where to, gorgeous, romantic Venice, the secluded Alps?" Quipped Sly.
" Rome actually to see the stock van class races aren't cover for a heist." Stated the inspector matter-of-factly.

On the plane travelling over to Italy's grand capital, Sly asked, " So who are we up against, hope its not the mafia"
" Lucky you," said Carmelita looking as through see was struggling to think of who it could actually be, " Its not them but that's all we know"
" Come on, Carm. You must have an idea"
" Well I don't. So be quiet and stop pestering me." snapped the irritated police officer.
And that was the last that was said for the trip.

Sly loved playing with Carmelita like this. Pretending you know nothing about what's happening is great form of fun. Funny. I'm after Murray first. Always seem to be when recruiting. Mind you, he is the closest to me that has become famous. There's Dimitri but I don't think he's been linked to me yet. I like Bentleys idea. Getting the team back together. I'm not saying policing the globe isn't fun, but its not my kind of fun. I can't wait 'til I can be stealing from the crime bosses of the world again. That's my kind of justice. I hope Bentleys done well with the share of the Cooper gangs fortune, I left him on that calling card. That's if he managed to keep it all. The worth are gang accumulated over the years should go to him and Murray. I mean the others can get a bit, but those to deserve it. I'll ask when I see him. And after all this thinking Sly fell into a dream of memories, before being shaken awake by Carmelita telling him the plane was landing soon.
